Most Vitamins are Now Made in China

Ninety percent of all vitamin C sold in the United States is from China. The Chinese also produce fifty percent of the world’s aspirin as well as thirty-five percent of all Tylenol. The same can be said for the majority of vitamins A, B12 and E.

China also suffers from the same conflict of interest seen in the United States. Regulators have a financial interest in the industries they are supposed to regulate, inspect and protect.
